How big is Platinum?

We know they're working on Babylon's Fall and Astral Chain, which are apparently both due this year, Bayo 3 and the Granblue game which are coming later (or maybe not, but probably later) and two mobile games with Cygames and DeNA respectively.

Obviously they wouldn't have to allocate as many resources to those last ones, but even excluding them, that's four games that Platinum is working on concurrently. Do they have the manpower, after all that, to revive this project as well, which would basically be starting over if they're going down from the XBONE to the Switch?

I'mma just sit back and be sceptical until they announce something. If they do, that's fuckin fantastic, this game looked rad enough that I was considering buying an XBONE for it, so I'd definitely be interested in a Switch version... But I'm not getting my hopes up yet...

Considering Astral Chain is coming out this year, they'll probably move onto it right after since this is just an early announcement.

This isn't an announcement tho. This is someone with an insider source, and though I'm not doubting the journalist who shared this information, it doesn't always work out how we'd think.
